I Have Been Inspired!

I have decided that since I spend countless hours on here stalking my brother, sister, and cousins, that I might as well create my own blog! I'm sure the aunts will appreciate being able to keep up on me as well.

As most of you probably know I am currently living in one of the most beautiful places in the world, Traverse City. I am working on my third year here, and I just come to love it more and more every day! After Katy and Bennett left and moved back to West Virginia, Nick and I moved into a house just outside of town. It is perfect for the two of us, with a fenced in yard for Nala, and even the cat gets her own room! Nick is still working at Best Buy doing all the car audio installations, and I am very close to having a new job. I am in the final stages of interviews and paperwork at the local Sprint store. It will be a nice change for me and I will have the opportunity to make a lot more money. We will both be attending school here in less than a week :( The summer has gone by so fast that neither one of us is ready to go back. Nick has three semesters left to get his bachelors in business, and I will be finishing my associates degree at the end of this year. After that I will have to move away from Traverse City because as much as I love it, an associates is as far as I can go for my degree here.

Nick's family recently suffered a terrible loss. His grandmother passed away after a long battle with cancer. It was hard on us all as she was very loved. I wish I could have known her better but her memory lives on through all the stories I here every day. We got to spend a lot of time with his family which was good for everybody. In hard times, the thing you need most is your family and friends and they sure came together to help everybody make it through. We made the best of a bad time. I got to be a part of some crazy family traditions with his relatives, and we had some great times with his cousins that were staying with us for the week.

Well, this is my start to the blogging world. I will keep you updated as much as possible, and try to even get Nick to write some things!

Until Next Time,

Nick and Sierra

I love that you've been sucked into the world of blogging. I just hope that you provide more stalking material for me so I can keep up with my baby sister when she's not around.

VISIT ME ALREADY!!!

I am so glad that I have another niece and/or nephew that I can stalk. Now if I can just get everyone to update at least once a week I'll be really happy. Send Nick my best, I'm sorry to hear about his gramma.

Glad to see you here! Katy sucked us all in! Maybe all the Aunt's need a blog too (Aunt Tricia!). Keep posting!

It's been six days.
Apparently your inspiration didn't last all that long. :)
